    Theoretically? For sure. Practically speaking, it’s usually easier said than done.

    For example, the Swastika itself did nothing wrong, but it’s not exactly about to be rehabilitated.

      Agreed, energy is better spent elsewhere than trying to rehabilitate words that have been co-opted by the right. This isn’t like reappropriating a slur, like queer, trying to “take back” libertarian would just cause confusion.
